Travel back in time and see what the earth might have looked like millions of years ago. Sullivan Bay, located on the southeast of Santiago Island, is a great place for any admirer of geology. Here you can see some amazing lava formations and the volcanic landscape created by long-cooled lava flows from 1897. As you walk over this black and barren landscape, admire the different textures and shapes of the hardened lava underneath your feet. Many of the islands in the Galápagos started off as barren and desolate lands just like Sullivan Bay, only to be slowly transformed into places filled with abundant flora and fauna.
